The article attempts to substantiate the transformation of the game method in physical education classes at the initial stage of education at the university. It is shown that modern students who received a negative experience of isolation during the school period due to the COVID-19 pandemic are hardly able to form open-type social capital. The initial stage of education at a university can become for many such a space for a game-dialogue, in which the ability to communicate is revealed especially brightly. The game as the basis of life arrangement in this context should be filled with semantic content, even if this approach contradicts the habitually perceived essence of the game as an attainable practice. The reformatting of the game does not occur due to a change in its structure or content, the transformation is carried out through the immanent postulation of the significance of the procedures for cooperation with partners in the team. The transfer of meaning to semantic content contributes to the discovery by students of a significant Other, the dialogue with which turns out to be an element of self-knowledge. Spontaneous self-knowledge becomes reflexive and filled with meaningful connotations, as opposed to the emotional perception of the situation. The inclusion of a game-dialogue in the educational process allows you to actively influence the formation of open-type social capital.
